No content available in Photos widget on iPhone

Same issue. Can't figure out how to add photos to the photo widget on my phone. It just says "No content available" and when I tap the widget, it takes me to photos with no option to add a photo to the widget. There's also no option when you tap and hold the widget.

I have seen this asked in a few places and Apple aren’t answering. It seems like the widgets that are built in aren’t worth using. Hate that the updates are inevitable and you have no choice whether or not they ruin your phone for a while until they have actually developed something properly. Wish they would release things that work straight off though other than using us all as guinea pigs because they want to keep up with the competition whether they have actually have the information to keep up or not. So it looks like the choice is to not use the widget or to have a blank grey one on your screen as it seems Apple just don’t understand the technology yet but still put it out there anyway. The downfall of apple products is that they care more about image and what they can say they have on their devices, no matter on if it all actually works.

click on the heart symbol for the photos you like. After few hours those photos will be visible in the features section of the photos app and will also be picked up by photos widget. This worked for me.

Same here ....

Likewise! It worked last night when I first installed and now it just can’t fetch the photos for some reason. Does anyone have a fox for this?

Widgets need work. Take a look at Android. They’ve been doing them since day 1 and have them down pat. Photo widget is blank for me also. Apple response = crickets. Smh

me too why?

yeah same problem....photo widget showing no content avaliable

actually have no interest in just a stand still photo widget. can Apple some how make it more useful?

Apple needs to copy android first. Apple only copy the widget not its content. Wait for the new upgrade dates when they already copied whats on android.

Same,

no one has anything on YouTube except 2 12yr old Indian kids.... with no fix

apple is of no help,

14.01 was no help.

yanked my sim outta my iPhone,

back to android you go!!!

Mine shows content called “for you”, “shard memories”, but is not adjustable. Same singular image. Delete!!!

I had the same problem.

But when I try to change my widget through the watch itself, the picture widget did pop up.

grts

That didn’t work for me. It worked when I first updated to iOS 14 for a few days then it disappeared and I haven’t been able to get it to work since. Uggh
